  • Bought to you by:

    • The 50’s, where every utensil from car to ovens will have it’s own nuclear reactor in the future
    • The 60’s, where Mankind soon will travel through starsystems and vacations on the moon are possible
    • The 70’s, where people thought that in a few years Neutron-Brains will be created that work just like the human brain
    • The 80’s, where it was said that in the year 2000 we will have flying cars and hoverboards
    • The 90’s, where the internet took off and soon nobody will ever send letters again
    • The 00’s, that soon self driving cars will take over all transport business
    • The 10’s, where a magical working all-knowing Siri/Alexa/Cortana voice will be the way people will interact with at home and on the go
    • Now the 20’s, where AI will be able to recreate talent and come up with genuine new ideas never before seen by mankind

    I do not think AI can recreate talent or art. AI can imitate art and copy already existing art and melt it to something new. But an Artist-AI can not take two noses of coke, one bottle of vodka and come up with a novel new concept of creative work. Sure it will come up with things never seen before, but will it resonate with people or will it just be weird, quirky or empty? It is not enough to render an image of a diamond skull, you actually have to build it like Damien Hirst. Artist of the type of Banksy, Dali and Francis Bacon will not get replaced by AI. AI will not stand in the streets spraying walls, AI will not get off board off a ship in New York holding a human-long bread and AI will certainly not be able to draw triptychs of pain and suffering based on the death of his friend. AI will copy something that looks like it, but it will not have the “Talent” or the depth to make it believable and knit a story around it and know the people to communicate to. It most certainly will be used to subvert people on social media to vote against their interests and radicalize opinions. That is it’s talent.









  • It’s funny that you mentioned pot. Because people described the reaction of pot sometimes in the way of OPs question: When you smoke weed, you get sensitive for things your brain normally is able to filter out as irrelevant information because your head can only process so much before it gets overwhelmed. Some people described that when they smoke weed, that they can sit in their living room or kitchen and start noticing the humming of the fridge or the buzzing of an electrical object as your synapses are wired “differently” when blocked by THC and you start to notice things, your brain normally suppresses.

    Sorry for your tinnitus bro. I hope you find ways to make it bearable at times.






  • For me it is so weird, that you have to use extra tools to disable telemetry and unwanted features in windows systems. Why is windows not giving me a central option to decide on those things? Is it maybe because they do not want me to decide for myself and therefore splitting the places where I need to disable all that unwanted stuff as opaque as possible? Can they be more obvious that they do not value your opinion on how you want your OS to behave?

    Quit Windows. It is a dead end and get worst with every release.

    If you tolerate this, then your children will be next.
